how much is a tv worth?

seriously, i don't understand how ppl can be so anal over a stupid television set. what more, a free one.

is a tv so important that it is your lifeline, and if you can't have it for a few weeks, you'll die? seriously, there is much more to life outside the google box than in it. errrr, go get a life?

and i now know how bitchy being in the customer service line is. you are basically paid to be the middle man between the organization and client, and about 75% of your job scope is getting scoldings from customers. the other 25%? answering to your boss.

so people, please don't be mean to the people who are in the frontline serving you. most of the time, it is not their fault. when they say there is nothing they can do about it, it is probably true. they can either be nice and patient and listen to your unreasonable rantings, or be human and tell you to fuck off. he/she may be at work, but never forget the person's basic value as a human. if he/she humbles himself and tries to accomodate your scolding, do not climb over his/her head.

like the woman who was screaming over the phone at me today. telling me about how you have a life and cannot be waiting the whole day for your tv. and refuses to put down the phone and let me call back. well, seriously, if you put down the phone and get back to your life, while i try what i can to see what arrangements can be made, i could work better and you could have your life. repetitively telling me that you have a life really just shows what kind of life you have. and just what kind of woman would be screaming over the phone to someone? it reflects really badly, and seriously i was laughing my ass off on the other end. and be a little smarter and not make stupid demands. if i cant do anything about it, i can't. even if you are able to muster a million decibel scream and direct it at me, it doesnt help. besides, i have your address, i/c no. and lotsa info. you threaten to complain, but you see, you know nothing about me. right now, i can give the finger to the job and give you hell. the most you can do is make me lose my job. after all you know nothing about me. but i can make you lose much more than that, if i were a mirror reflection of your character. i know everything about you. heheh.

i was walking pass my own tv set just about a moment ago, and i read on the subtitles.. "is this how you treat someone who really cares about you?" and i thought about how things are between you and me. i think that even though u don't even treat me much as a friend anymore, it wouldn't change the lengths i'd go to just to make sure you are alright. afterall, i know i won't get, and i don't expect anything in return. it is just mine. a belief, a silliness and just that bit of gratitude. i'll be here for you.
